guy at my work asked on a explorer forum for tips on replacing a balljoint, with my brains and his hands we got both lowers changed out. After the operation, teaching him to use a impact gun, hammer, and ball joint press, the car worked fine and only computer issues left. anyway to the point.... I made him go back and post on the same forum a debrief of what he did and complications he found and how the got around them.

This is my pet peeve on this forum is helping people with less then 5 posts and never hear back after we give advice.

I hear what your saying. Sometimes thats the nature of things. All we can hope for is that they soon realize that they get more from this forum them just information.

Like making friends that care.

I was born in the Japanese hospital of East Los Angeles. This is the area now called Hoyo Maravilla and where Obregon Park is by 1st St. and Rowan.

I went to school at Our Lady of Soledad which is now on Ceasar Chavez Blvd, but was once called Brooklyn Ave in the hood called "Lote Maravilla."

I now live in Montebello which is a couple of miles away.

Yeap, the theater was called the "Golden Gate." Unfornately, they knocked it down days before it was deemed a historical landmark.

Porky's was a place that was hot during cruising days. I think I only ate there once.

There also used to be a "Hat" on 3rd St. and Ford Blvd, but the "King Taco" people bought the building. Too bad most people don't remember that place.
